    My heart was thumping the entire time Lilith was away for spay - and we've spayed/neutered dogs before her. Can't imagine what it's like to have a surgery like this.

    Here's to hoping for a good outcome.

    Glad to hear Kaia did well in surgery! I know that must have been nerve-wracking. What a strong little trooper she is! Looking forward to shaved hip spam :)

    I hope she'll be up in no time and start picking fights with the bigger dogs! (I love that picture where she's playfighting with one of your COs)

    Is recovery ~6 months like it is for a total hip replacement? No hard floors, bed rest, etc?

    Awww, poor Kaia. Glad the surgery went well and she is on the road to recovery. On a related note, which of your pack do you think will be most affected by her recovery? Excluding you and Jen of course...

    Well, she is home.

    Taos

    She is not very happy, but she does seem more mobile than before. She has some serious pain meds, so she should feel pretty good through her recovery.

    Recovery time is 4 weeks, not too bad! We will be looking into a place in Santa Fe for rehab.

    Not trying to be cruel, but I think her naked butt is adorable.

    Aww! Poor little Kaia and her naked hip. I am glad that she seems to be more mobile already. That has to be a good sign.
